willswear3 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 First off, I would suggest not splitting the money because it ruins the fun. You entered the league knowing it was possible you lost money(100$ I'd assume) so winning 200$ is still great. Even if you don't care about that and do want to split I wouldn't because I think you have a better team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it is soft, and it ruins it, but the extra beans would be nice if a lot of opinions think I dont have a strong chance of winning.

yungballa Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Your team is better. Your 2 rb's are solid week to week plays and the rest of your team is just blown to the max. On a great week i cant imagine what you score. Id also suggest not splitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungballa Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Also julio is playing the saints next week. If julio is back to normal for next week, he's bound to blow up. Matt ryans hot as the sun, saints secondary, valuable division game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P2Nation21 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I wouldn't split. He has the better QB and I like DeMarco Murray and Gore over J Bell and Blount although both of those guys produced nicely last week on a down week. Other than Rodgers and Murray and Sanders (who has been off the past 3 weeks) his team is kinda weak. Your team is LOADED with studs. I'd take my chances with that team, ESPECIALLY if Julio Jones is healthy and plays next week against the Saints, potential for another monster game there. I honestly think he's offering to split the pot because he knows your team is FAR better than his and hes looking for a way to get more than $200.

byroz Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 450$ sounds better than 200$, but theres obviously a reason he wants to split the pot. And thats because your teams better. Id take your chances and play it out. You know whats better than 450$? 900$. Go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P2Nation21 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 FYI- Frank Gore has to go through concussion tests before he can play and sources are saying that he MIGHT not be cleared to play by Saturday nights game and I don't see another rb on his bench and I'm sure there isn't much available in the waivers but if there is, take the chance and pick up Carlos Hyde for yourself, maybe start him over Blount because if Gore doesn't play, Hyde is predicted to get a monster work load.

Dolphin_Akie Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Yeah Team 2 could be without Murray and Gore with injuries if they are unlucky. Sanu, Donnell and Sanders have been quiet recently as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruityloop516 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 No, with the matchups next week you will probably win. Probably is far from absolute, but that's the fun of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P2Nation21 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Looks like DeMarco Murray is gonna be out this week too because of having Hand surgery today, so losing him and gore is gonna decimate that guys line up. You should win easily if Murray and Gore both don't play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foste127 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Thanks guys. Got news of Murray's surgery an hour after this was posted. I then realized Gore could potentially be out, especially with his game being on Saturday. There is no doubt I will be rolling the dice on this one. I especially like my chances now. Rodgers going off on a bounce back is the only thing that scares me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers going off on a bounce back is the only thing that scares me. Rodgers probably will go off but I don't think he's gonna put up enough points to make up for Murray if he doesn't play, and gore. 30-35 points is probably realistic for Rodgers against Tampa Bay. I still think you'll be more than fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deluxe1 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Your team looks significantly better, but you never know with Fantasy Football. I would offer a more equitable split for 1st and 2nd place. Maybe give second place $350 or $400. Then you lock in a decent profit in case of the upset. Just my two cents.

onbrake Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 If it was a higher stake league I might split.I would not split for that small amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
